Revive Liverpool

Chapter 26 The Leaping Clown's Rainer

At 11:20 on November 17th, in the 30th round of the Premier League, Liverpool will face West Ham United at home. Fortunately, Torres recovered well and was able to start this game.

Because of Gerrard's injury, he will not be able to play for the team for at least a month, which makes Pochettino's formation difficult. After all, the team itself does not have many players who can be sent to the field.Gerrard is one of the few players who can be sent to the field, and he is one of the few players who can decide the game.

In this game, Liverpool coach Pochettino arranged a 442 formation, with Torres and Ngego partnering up front.

In the midfield, Lucas and Meireles partnered in the middle, and Dirk Dirk and Sterling appeared on the two sides.

At the back, Glenn Johnson returned to the starting lineup, he and Konchesky locked the two sides, Carragher and Skrtel partnered in the middle.The goalkeeper is still Reina.

On the bench are Maxi Rodriguez and teenager Kelly.

The game started, and the team attacked the opponent at the beginning like the previous games, especially when the opponent was not a strong team, they wanted to establish an advantage first.

Liverpool's formation is pushed very forward, and they have been fighting in West Ham's half. They kept pressing in the frontcourt and got a lot of chances.

In the 17th minute, Meirelles took a long-range shot after receiving the kick back from Dirk.In the subsequent corner kick, Meireles took the ball. Glenn Johnson stopped the ball with a big chest, but he had a flash of inspiration.

In the 27th minute, Couit passed the ball to the center, Torres got the ball and hit the opponent's central defender Gabbidon. The referee decisively awarded a penalty.

In the 36th minute, Ilunga crossed the penalty area obliquely, Carlton Cole headed the goal, and the ball was confiscated by Reina.Then Kuit turned around and volleyed in front of the penalty area, and the ball missed the left side.

In the 38th minute, Sterling made a pass from the left to Torres. The latter made a shot. The ball was played by Green and was won by Konchesky. Then Konchesky made a diagonal pass from the left, just in time to find Torres. Torres headed the ball into the far corner from the small penalty area line.

Torres, who has just returned from injury, is still in hot form. He has scored in four consecutive Premier League games, raising his personal goals to 7 goals, ranking third in the league scorer list, second only to Manchester United's Berbatov and Manchester City's Carlos Tevez. After his recovery, Torres may be looking forward to competing for the league golden boot.

At the end of the first half, Liverpool led their opponents [-]-[-], which is still unbelievable for Liverpool today, especially in this game.

After all, the team did not have any particularly powerful attackers except Torres. Torres has just returned from injury, and his condition may not be good. Moreover, the team captain and team spirit Gerrard also failed to play this game due to injury.

With such a lineup, facing West Ham United, the team may be able to win, but it is really shocking to take a [-]-[-] lead in the first half. It seems that the team is telling Gerrard to recover from his injury. The team still has us.

Compared with the first half of the game, the second half of the game seemed a little dull, and neither side scored a goal.

But there are still some threatening shots, but these threatening shots are all from Liverpool.

In the 68th minute, Paulson sent a direct pass from the left. Maxi Rodriguez's left-footed pass was too close to the goal and almost passed directly to the goal.

In the 72nd minute, Torres shot vigorously in front of the penalty area, but was blocked by Green and hit the lintel. West Ham United escaped unharmed, but Paulson followed up and got the second spot of the ball.Another strong shot in front of the penalty area, but the ball was still thrown out of the crossbar by Green Fei.Green's outstanding performance prevented Liverpool from scoring again in the second half.It also allowed West Ham to escape a massacre.

After the game, Liverpool scored three points and came to the 8th place in the league.

Although the team has won, the gap with the previous teams in the Champions League has not narrowed. The team has little hope of winning the championship, and even the team's confidence in winning the top four in the league has been greatly affected.

On November 11, Reina was asked by a reporter from the "Daily Mail": "Are you considering leaving Liverpool?"At the time, Reina said this: "I don't want to lie. I have to say that we have to finish the league with our ranking higher than we are now, so that we can ensure that we will still be competitive next season.

If not, it will be difficult for the team to retain high-level players!If we don't get better on the pitch, it's going to be a very, very difficult situation. "

What does this "high-level player" mean?Reina faced another media, the ESPN TV network, and said: "No one can imagine that people like Torres, Gerrard and others will play for a long time in a team that cannot participate in the top competition in the Premier League. But if Liverpool loses them, then this team will receive a fatal blow."

When Li Nan saw the newspaper, the anger in his heart could not be restrained, and he threw the newspaper in his hand to the ground.

I can't stop complaining about Reina, I can't stay in Liverpool forever, waiting for Liverpool to revive again, and I still want to drag Gerrard, is Gerrard like you? .

I have endured Renner's recent high-profile publicity in front of the media, and didn't say anything to her, but he didn't know what to do, and he was still jumping around like a clown, talking bad things about his team everywhere.

Li Nan's patience with Reina has reached its limit.I can't bear it anymore, I don't need to bear it anymore.

Originally, Li Nan didn't plan to change the team's main goalkeeper this season. He just planned to introduce a young player with potential as the second goalkeeper, let Reina teach him, let him play in some unimportant games and experience it, so that he can adapt to the intensity of the Premier League more quickly.

Letting Reina stay in the position of Liverpool's goalkeeper for a period of time can be regarded as a reward for his hard work to Liverpool.

But now it seems that there is no such need, and I can put him on the team's winter transfer list.
